Stavanger is the fourth biggest city in Norway. It is situated on the southwest coast.
My aim is to try to capture something from every day, from the area nearby too, and when I am not at home I will still try to put up a photo from my archive.
Welcome back for another look.

These are definitely the NUMBER ONE and TWO places to go as a tourist in and around Stavanger.
PULPIT ROCK and LYSEFJORD
I recommend good shoes and a day when the weather is ok.
More images, and info. you can find under this image on my blog.

As you can see, driving through narrow streets can be a bit complicated. Do you see the corner of the white building to the right? Well, this is not a road open for all cars, just for those who have special permissions.

It is an area with restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
And a lively place in the evenings.

Well, if you are in and around Stavanger today,
you will look up and see that this is not like the sky we have just now.
So far we have not had much "summer" here.
It has been cold, windy, sometimes rain, sometimes a bit of sunshine and a warm day or two.
The school holiday has started and many families have headed for Spain, Portugal, Italy, France etc.
I look forward to warmer days.

MS SANDNES, also named The Queen Of The Coast and The Night Route, was made back in 1950.

Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evening at 21.00 it left from Stavanger and stopped at several small places along the coast on it's way to Bergen where it arrived 07.00 the following morning. The day was used to empty the goods, bring new things onboard and clean and prepare food.

Today it is used for special events, and it is sometimes open as a restaurant/cafe you can visit.
It is well kept and has style inside, with the dark wood, beautiful furniture, and art on the walls.

This is the place to visit if you are looking for old and unique books, magazines etc. that you can no longer find in bookshops.
They have been here for years and hopefully will continue for many more.
Some people still love to read books, not only through internet.
Løvås Bruktbu is also on Facebook.

When I passed the Cathedral today, I noticed lots of people wearing different national costumes.
All the people you see here, have just finished their Bachelor degree, and are now qualified nurses.
That is what I call a very important job they are going in to.
Congratulations and best wishes!
